Anyone using Kodi on a pi?
have it running on a PI 4b
works ok most of the time, have a usb stick plugged in for recordings via tvheadend using a web browser.
Have linked it to my file server for other stuff downloaded directly

I haven't tried it with a Pi4, with previous Pis it was ok but noticeably slower than running it on other stuff.
I also never quite got happy with the live TV on Kodi, the interface was never quite what I wanted.
A firestick might be an easier/cheaper option than trying to find a pi in stock.

Anyone using Kodi on a pi? Trying out Plex but limitations of my server mean transcoding is a no go and my client (Roku) seems picky about codecs.
Having internet radio, TV and film all plugged in to my receiver seems appealing and possibly solve the transcoding issues with the grunt of a pi4 (if I can find one to buy).
